Academic Integrity Workshop for Students
Join us for Academic Integrity: Learn to Stop Worrying About It!—a practical, interactive workshop that demystifies academic integrity at York and helps you feel confident in demonstrating it.
Using current, scenario-based examples, you’ll explore what academic integrity looks like in practice and learn how to recognize common forms of academic misconduct. You’ll also build essential skills for working with sources and citing effectively.
This workshop provides a supportive environment where you can ask questions, gain clarity, and connect with fellow students navigating the same challenges.

Community Conversations
All are invited to join this six-part, interactive conversation series that brings together colleagues from across the university to explore what it means to teach in ways that support academic integrity.
Each session focuses on a chapter from The Opposite of Cheating: Teaching for Integrity in the Age of AI (Bertram Gallant & Rettinger, 2025), available as an eBook through York University Libraries.
Co-hosted by the GenAI Pedagogies Community of Practice and the Academic Integrity Community of Practice, these discussions create space for reflection, practical insight, and collaborative thinking about integrity, trust, and the evolving nature of assessment.
Come to any single session or attend the full series.
